Hi all just chasing some info on the in hull 1kw trannys for furuno 587.just got myself a 21ft pacemaker offshore and already has spot for a shoot through hull tranny. Has anyone had much experience with these what I am wondering is if sounding through the hull affects sensitivity and picture clarity.anyfeedback would be appreciated cheers all. Dave

Just fill a plastic bag full
Just fill a plastic bag full of water, and hold it on the spit on the hull and put the tranny against it and see if you get a good reading in say 30m of water.
If you don't have the M260 1kW jobbie yet, just pull off the transom mount and hold it against the bag full of water.
Boston Whaler 235 Conquest......getting the flogging it was built for.
